Not really. These kids would enroll in 2018. QB's take at least 2 years to develop.

Sussman is heading into his Jr. year, while Brunson is heading into his RS Soph year. They are the presumptive backup and starter, respectively. Jake Thompson is a RS Frosh in 2017-18, and the new recruit is likely to RS unless he is switching positions. I think Ryan O'Malley was a walk-on.

So, this level of recruiting is appropriate and necessary.

Nick Patti holds offers from a slew of FCS and FBS schools, though we offered early. Will Levis has a bunch of IVY offers...and could receive FBS offers shortly (if he hasn't already). I think Maurice Bellan is more likely an "Athlete", and has FBS offers from Army and Navy. He's likely to play WR or DB at either FCS or FBS...though he is listed as a combo qb and WR.

Braeden Zenelovic is an interesting one. In some ways, he reminds me a little bit of our current QB coach, Will Fiacchi, purely from the arm and running perspectives. Comes from an unheralded school in Upstate NY. He has some serious size at 6'4 190. I think if Syracuse offered him...he'd be there in a second. But, he could have a standout career at the FCS level. He could be a diamond in the rough. The level of competition is the thing that makes you wonder how could he is/could be. Fiacchi had serious talents and was a very smart qb...but more than a simple game manager. That, to me, was the difference between him and Shane Sweeney...another upstate QB from an unheralded h.s. program.
